Julie Hiner spent endless hours during her childhood lost in the pages of books. The only thing that took precedence over a book was her Walkman. Julie remains a hardcore 80s rocker at heart. Julie worked as a computer scientist, specializing in network simulation. On a break between contracts, she published an inspirational work of nonfiction, her own story of facing fear and anxiety on a bicycle in the European mountains. Julie now writes psychological horror/suspense heavily infused with hard rock and metal. She has published an 80s metal murder detective series, a 90s nostalgic serial killer novella, a death metal demon possession novella, and co-curated a horror anthology. Several of Julie's horror short stories have been published in anthologies. You can find her at KillersAndDemons.com serving up toxic cocktails of metal and murder.
